Martin Dingle Wall - Actor/Acting Coach
6 Reviews
Great acting often comes down to your relationship with yourself. Self exploration is the key to courage in my opinion. All the good & the bad parts of us are the key to understanding other characters. The work is about becoming comfortable with what you find in yourself & becoming familiar with the unfamiliar. I think this is what contributes greatly to engaging & honest performances. My approach is at its core, self discovery born from the scripted word.

MASTERING THE SELF-TAPE
and IN-PERSON CAMERA AUDITION
I'm an accomplished film and television actor and during my 8 years of experience in LA, the audition process has evolved. I've had literally hundreds and hundreds of auditions, both self-tape and in-person, and I draw from those experiences when coaching new students. I speak from both the casting director's and the actor's points of view and address the obstacles that are in the way of your natural talent shining through in the few minutes you have during an audition taping.
Within the last year, I appeared on CBS's FBI: MOST WANTED, FOX's 9-1-1, and Netflix's WHAT/IF a

I work both one-on-one or with a group on a script of your choice (can provide one if needed) to those of all backgrounds and levels to go through the process of actually LIVING the scene. I customize the techniques and methods used depending on how you are naturally within the scene. This will be a scene study aimed to make it all feel as real as possible as if this is truly happening to you. So taking bits and pieces from all my own training and experience, I reinforce with some script analysis emphasising REACTIVE improvisation and spontaneity connecting your real life experience for emotional depth.
